Overview

• Cristiano Ronaldo enters the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with an estimated net worth of roughly $1.4 billion, making him the first active footballer on the list.
• Bloomberg cites more than $550 million in career wages from 2002 to 2023 plus extensive sponsorships and CR7-branded businesses as the foundation of the valuation.
• Reporting attributes a major boost to his Al‑Nassr remuneration, with cited figures ranging from about $245 million per year to €200 million per year and a separate BBC-cited €344 million two-year deal.
• Ronaldo’s commercial footprint includes long-term partnerships such as Nike and Armani and vast social reach exceeding 650 million Instagram followers that generates significant advertising income.
• Ronaldo’s representatives have not publicly confirmed the estimate, and the listed wealth reflects Bloomberg’s compilation of publicly available information rather than audited disclosures.
